Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets lasagna noodles
- 454 grams fresh spinach
- 450 grams ricotta cheese
- 300 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 120 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 120 grams crumbled feta cheese
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 800 ml marinara sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain them and set them aside on a baking sheet lined with parchment to prevent sticking.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add the spinach and cook for 3-4 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, 80 grams of Parmesan cheese, 100 grams of mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, salt, pepper, and oregano. Mix well. Stir in the cooked spinach.
Spread 1/2 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
Layer 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce. Spread 1/3 of the spinach-cheese mixture evenly over the noodles, followed by 1 cup of marinara sauce and 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella. Repeat this layering process two more times, ending with a layer of marinara sauce on top.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top layer.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, ensuring it does not touch the cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
